Hehehe... actually, believe or not I sort of liked this! Not for the first stanza, but the last two lines. It was cute, since the poem was so dramatic and then it dissolved into childish fragments. Which was cute.

You have the privilege of being my first post.
Although I thought your poem was out of place, I thought it was funny and it brought a smile to my face.
p.s. how about next time you take it a little more seriously. I'm not saying you have to lose your humor, but give the site the respect it deserves.
Yea- this kid is in it for attention and brad.
Just to let you know if you post anymore weird or random poems that don't really mean anything I won't say anything.
ConorR, I didn't understand your poem. Also, the words weren't very interesting. Using my thesaurus, I rewrote your poem using words I didn't know. Mine sounds like a spell.

I facsimile chiffon!
Girdle of phlogiston!
Everyone lapse! ( gone )

I really don't know what to say to this, other than...no. While I was reading it, my face was permanently formed in a 'what the crap?!' expression. really, someone should have taken a picture--it was interesting.
I agree with above comments. We take our work seriously here at YWS. Please do the same or find another site to post on.
Go London Aspen for finding something positive to do with this! Nice idea, London! I think I'll try that next time I don't know what to think about a poem.

London aspen, this made me laugh, it was actually strangely satisfying to read!
ConnoR, I think you should work on this a bit, put something more into it,
Did you even try when writing this?
